In this instructional segment, the presenter explains a practical method for properly bracing the core during heavy lifts. The core brace is achieved by first positioning the belly button directly over the ribs, visualizing the balance of two glasses of water to maintain stability, and finally adopting the sensation of pushing outward while seated on a toilet to fully engage the abdominal wall. These cues are intended to help lifters generate intra‑abdominal pressure and protect the spine during demanding exercises.
